And now for other news! I am releasing a short story tomorrow for free. This story involves a minor character from book three ZOMBIE WASTELAND. The title of my story is DON'T BURY YOUR DEAD, and is a zombie story from a zombies point of view. I am very excited to release it before Nerdcon, and before the start of NaNoWriMo next month. All next month I will be working on my last book, ZOMBIMERICA, and hopefully I can get through this halfway point and have it for you all late next year.

Lastly, I have a question. I want to know what scares you? Once I finish with my zombie series I am not sure I will be continuing to work in the zombie genre, so I want to know what scares you? What gives you chills just to think about? What makes you shiver when you are walking to your car in the dark of night? What wakes you sweaty and shaking from a deep sleep when you are at home alone at night?

A little over a year ago I met a wonderful YA author named Nina Soden. She will be appearing with me and several other authors at Nerdcon on the 22nd and 23rd of this month. Recently, Nina Soden finished the fourth book in her Blood Angels series, and it is my pleasure to introduce you all to her. But first, come see us at Rocket City's Nerdcon October 22 and 23!

Blurb about Nina's new release PURSUIT:Growing up in the most powerful coven of witches Atlanta, Michigan has ever known, gave Phoebe all the resources she needed to develop her craft. However, it wasn't until the tragic slaughter at the annual Founders' Celebration, when she lost her mother, her sister, and both of her grandmothers, that Phoebe really started to find her calling, her purpose. Her cousin Aleerah was the only surviving dhampir in history and her sister Petra had been a gifted, naturally talented, tracker. Magic didn't come as easily for Phoebe, but desperation leads to desperate measures, and Phoebe was bound and determined to carry on where her sister left off. Starting with the ancient ritual of the taking of blood Phoebe not only developed her tracking abilities she pushed herself physically, mentally, and magically until she became the High Council's leading tracker.

What have people been saying about the Blood Angel series?

“From the opening scene to the final chapter, the characters in this book dive onto the page and demand your attention.”—Genalmt (Amazon.com 5-Star review)

“The characters are realistic and compelling, and the author’s tone is casual and lighthearted—frequently bringing a smile or even a laugh, or sometimes a tear.”—Ula Manzo (Amazon.com 5-Star review)

“I quickly inhaled this story. The author has a very easy to read talent that engulfs the reader. I found the pace of the story to be steady throughout. Though the concept has been done before, the author put her own ‘uniqueness’ to it that kept me guessing.”—WhisperingWillo (Amazon.com 5-Star review)
